Abstract

The purpose of this project was to design and build a functional BattleBot-style robot that complies with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign’s 30 lbs. combat robotics division rules and regulations to compete in the annual Robobrawl held in April of 2023. The robot designed for the competition had a vertical spinner driven by v-belts, a high-density polyethylene compliant outer armor ring, two independently driven wheels to allow zero-point turn capability, frame geometry that allowed the robot to be driven upside down, and an electrical system with two shut-off switches, one for the weapon and one for the drive system. Detailed in this report is an in-depth look at the design, manufacture, and testing of the project robot. After these sections are recommendations for changes to the design to make it more effective in the future.
